Book description
Jess Penhaligon is on her way to Devon to receive an award for her
botanical painting. Hosting her will be Kate, who gladly welcomes her
into her home. Jess's own family fell apart several years ago, so she
is grateful for Kate's friendliness - and her close unit of extended
family and friends, who embrace Jess just as warmly.
As this group begins reminiscing on their pasts and sharing their
stories with Jess, it becomes apparent that her family history may be
linked with theirs. Long-buried secrets from past generations begin to
be uncovered - but at what cost have they been kept hidden?
Marcia Willett's early life was devoted to the ballet, but her
dreams of becoming a ballerina ended when she grew out of the
classical proportions required. She has always loved books, and a
family crisis made her take up a new career as a novelist - a decision
she never regretted. She lives in a beautiful and wild part of Devon.
